The accident along the eastbound side of the highway left two people stuck in the cab, but they suffered no injuries, according to police.

A tractor trailer rollover along Interstate 84 eastbound forced temporary lane closures along the highway Friday afternoon after the truck, which was carrying food, landed on it's side in the southern lanes.

The accident occurred just after noon, officials said, with reports that two people were stuck inside the cab. They were conscious and alert, dispatchers said, and eventually able to exit the vehicle.

No injuries were reported, according to police. A tow truck was called to the scene and all lanes are expected to reopen shortly.
